How do you break superglue?
I've super glued a magnet into my brake disc. I now need to turn it around to reverse it's polarity. How can I break the grip of the super glue?

Re: How do you break superglue?
acetone is what you want, some nail varnish removers are based on it so try her cupboard
that or VERY hot soapy water, almost boiling

Re: How do you break superglue?
Superglue has bugger all shear strength. I wouldn't use it for anything that you expect to stay put when under any sideways force, such as the centrigugal force a rotating object would be subjected to.

Re: How do you break superglue?
just use some mole grips, as tim wilky says, a bit of shearing force to the magnet and it will come off the disk. I used epoxy on mine and they came off easly when i wanted.
